Math Probes are a weekly assignment. They
consist of 4 pages of basic mathematical concepts such as basic
calculation, problem solving, linear measurement, geometry, and time.
The probes are given 2 pages at a time: pages 1 and 2 then pages 3 and
4. Students are given 2 days to complete pages 1 and 2, and 2 days to
complete pages 3 and 4. They are scored with the goal of improving over
time. They also are a great indication of area weaknesses which need to
be addressed.

Spelling is another weekly assignment.
The goal of the spelling homework is to allow students the chance to
write new words multiple times. This will enable them to recognize these
words in their reading and be able to use them correctly in their
writing. Students are given ample time to complete assignments.
